She's sweet, but she's fucked up

Boobs, butts, thighs, and other issues

So I went to the play last night.  I like beginning sentences with "so"...then it doesn't seem to come out of nowhere.  Yeah...so the play.  The biggest problem I had with it was that it was all about body image, and girls hating their bodies, and so on....but all the actresses were skinny.  Except one who wasn't fat but wasn't as skinny...she was the funny one.  Aren't they (we) always?  So as they're spouting off their monologues, all I can think is "You don't know what fat is!!!"  And maybe that's the point, that everyone has f*cked up body issues no matter what size you are.  But f*ck the point, the message, what have you....I don't want to see a girl who's a size 2 struggling to grab the skin from her stomach and call it "fat".  If you want to have a contest, I'm game...b/c I'd kick your ass.  Okay, so I do have a messed up view of my body.  At least I'd like to think so, b/c that would mean I'm not really "squishy" as I like to say.  More cushion for the pushion, it's not the size of the boat but the motion in the ocean...and many more sayings like that.  I digress...I have to say the play was good, despite my previous complaints.  But sometimes I don't like being bombarded with such female issues...it was such a vagina fest.  Because when I watch from the outside, we (as in women) are pretty annoying.  Very annoying.  I know, I know, guys have their issues too, penis envy and what not...I'm done talking about this.  I just realized I have no more to say.  So I'll move on to latter portion of the evening...went for drinks with a few friends post play.  It was just one of those good times where the conversation was so alive, in fact, there were several going on at once.  When half our party stepped outside for a cigarette, the mood in the bar drastically changed- it was suddenly quite and seemed a little sad.  So it was fun, good times, despite the weird guy hitting on Brianne and killing our conversation as he came out to await having, as he said, "the last drag of your cigarette".  Guy, you ruined the mood and made us uncomfortable.  You should practice your moves.

Vagina fests.

they frighten me too. I love and get it, but am sometimes secretly disgusted by it.

It's sorta how I feel about the Indigo Girls.
